Crayon Cups Centerpiece

Centerpieces for crayon-themed party.  I didn't make the cone tips of the "crayons" because balloons still have to be added to these on-site.  Cone tops would only add a level of craziness difficulty.  I already have enough trouble getting the colored tissue paper to wad up in a nice way.

Also, since I thought I would do this freehand and with a glue-gun: can you spot the mistakes?

Craft-a-Week #3

Alphabet blocks for centerpiece base. Three chipmunk plushies are placed on it and some floating balloons are to be attached at the center.

Blocks were made out of corrugated boxes covered with cut-out card shapes. Yes, that's eighty hand-cut letters. (Actually, it was 120 letters, but I decided not to use add the third box to the centerpiece, so 40 letters went unused.)

I hate chipmunks more than ever now. And alphabet blocks.
